White Princess of the Jungle #1 head KO, falling

Her name is Taanda, and she is the red-headed ruler of the Tauruti tribe in darkest Africa; the year is 1951. Some white poachers are stealing animals already in traps set by the Tauruti tribesmen. Taanda discovers their felonious deeds and gives them a chance to give the stolen animals back. The baddies choose to fight, and hit Taanda across the forehead with a pistol butt. She goes limp and falls into the crocodile ridden river. She recovers a while later, kills a croc that was planning to have her for dinner, and returns to defeat the baddies. Not a bad episode, considering that she was a complete unknown and debutted during the senseless furor that existed in the era immediately preceding inception of the Comic Book Code (in 1954). I think she looked quite good for a short-lived unknown, but then, any jungle girl starting out in 1951 - no matter how good they looked - was not destined to last very long; what a shame -- scarcity and rarity may be the reason we enjoy the golden age so much. Oh well, let's do it!
